Happy Valentine’s Day!
Today it’s a huge honor to be able to share yet another special moment in dancefloor history eternalized by this recording from Roy Thode’s archive, all made possible thanks to his dear friend, Marsha Stern.
Recorded at the Underground on February 14th, 1981, this mix has been stored for just over 4 decades, to think that a spool of microscopic magnetized metal particles will give us the opportunity to re-experience what Roy Thode brought to the floor that night years before many of us were even born is goosebump inducing for us to say the least. At this point there should be no introduction needed to explain the virtuosity of this dancefloor maestro. Roy was a true Disc Jockey in essence, this is what he did, and his unique love for the craft can be heard loud and clear. Undoubtedly one of our biggest inspirations to us as DJs today.
We hope this mix takes you to a very special place because it surely came from one as Roy had self-titled this night “Music From My Heart”.
Let us all be Roy’s Valentine today - Love ❤️

DJ Roy Thode Valentine's Mix - Music From My Heart - The Underground, NYC, 14 Feb, 1981

For the next instalment of our Record Club Mix series we’re honoured to be passing the baton to one of Brazil’s finest DJs, @milloskaiser.

Born and raised in Niterói, near Rio de Janeiro, Millos moved to São Paulo in his early twenties and has been DJing and collecting records for almost two decades. You may recognise his name as formerly one half of the DJ duo and party series, Selvagem, the man behind the Onda de Amor compilation on Soundway Records, or through his various several edits and remixes. Having played more than 1000 parties/festivals, both underground and big league, he knows a thing or two about how to make people move and for the last 5 years has also been running Caracol, a music bar/club in São Paulo. 

“For a change, I've decided to focus solely on new stuff: Brazilian productions and recent releases that sound heavily Brazil-influenced for my ears. I'm probably most known for digging out hidden and forgotten gems but this time decided to do a mix exclusively with music from the present that has been on heavy rotation on my sets. I love all these tracks and have been playing them A LOT for the last year or so. There's stuff from Phil Mison's Cantoma project, an Italian cover-not-cover of Sandra de Sá, João Selva, a Portuguese remix of indie Brazilian band O Terno, a recent collaboration I did with Gabto (one of my favorite producers in the world), one unreleased joint from myself together with Gaspar Muniz,  another remix one he did with Beno for Banana Gold Records y mucho más. The mix was recorded at Caracol, on a dry and hot afternoon (despite being winter here) with Pioneer CDJs and an Isone420 mixer.” 

Big thanks to Millos for the mix, he will be playing for the first time in Canada and Japan in October and is soon to be releasing his first original music on Planet Trip Records.

With Sam Don in France, Marco the genius behind MLiR stepped up for a full takeover of Free Association.  But rather than do the usual 2-hours, in a first for FA, he went above and beyond, delivering 4 hours of sonic delights! 

Cut to only 2 hours when it went out live on radio, this is the full fat version with all four delectable hours!

Sometimes we happen to take some of the fundamental aspects that guide our main mission for which this platform is a crucial resource for granted, even if we never underestimate their place in what makes it something singular amid the multitude of similar content that can be found online. Take eclecticism for example, a quintessential characteristic of every single contribution to the series and an overall quality that is pursued by each of the guests we have in the construction of their deeply personal musical narratives. Not a mean feat, if we take into account the sheer diversity of rhythmic patterns and harmonic structures involved that need to be concatenated cohesively or, at the very least, sequenced harmoniously to be able to engulf us in its motional thrust and emotional pull. The greatness of all the mixes featured in this collection lies in the fact that they rely mostly on both a delicate play of moods and an intricate balance of forces, managing to harness their energy and use it towards stimulating our bodies, exciting our senses, enticing our minds and warming our hearts in the process. This episode is no exception, quite the opposite, as Lago brings his singular selective sensibility and elegant use of skills to weave an enthralling thread of gliding grooves that intertwine with alluring melodies from all over the globe.
